\nGreetings, fellow Townspeople!<\/p>\n

As many of you know, I’ve been out of the country for the last few weeks, enjoying my, uh, well — my honeymoon!<\/p>\n

Yes, I finally found a woman foolish enough to hitch her wagon to my sputtering star, and a happier man I could not be.\u00a0 She’s great, and I thank you in advance for all your kind thoughts and congratulations.<\/p>\n

Anyhow:\u00a0 the missus and I actually spent our honeymoon in old blighty, traveling through the United Kingdom, from the Southwest to the far north — and in the course of the journey, I couldn’t help but get a few Olde Englande-related tunes running through my head.\u00a0 Your job is to READ MY MIND, and tell me what you think was on my mental soundtrack during our journey.<\/p>\n

Here are the places and things we visited where a specific song got stuck in my head.\u00a0 Can you guess what songs they were?<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. While riding the train through the English countryside<\/li>\n
  2. Changing trains in Slough<\/li>\n
  3. Seeing the train platform sign for Swindon<\/li>\n
  4. Waterloo station<\/li>\n
  5. Piccadilly Circus<\/li>\n
  6. Driving around the traffic fixtures the English use instead of stoplights<\/li>\n
  7. London, broadly<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I warn you:\u00a0 some of these are less obvious than you might think.\u00a0 In fact, I was kind of surprised by the un-obviousness of my mental soundtrack as we made our way through the country.<\/p>\n

    Lastly, however, a real stumper:\u00a0 in Glasgow, we visited a great museum which, in the interest of keeping this challenging, I won’t name.\u00a0 Upon exiting, I looked across the green and saw the following building.\u00a0 Out came the camera, in a photographic move of exceptional rock nerdiness.\u00a0 Can you identify this building, and tell us why I felt it was worth capturing on film?<\/em><\/p>\n

    I look forward to your responses.<\/p>\n

    HVB<\/p>\n
